Styled Google Map

Styled maps allow you to customize or change the style of the standard Google base maps, changing the user interface of such elements as roads, parks, and built-up areas etc.

For api key sign up here:

https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/tutorial#api_key

After you sign up, use the following script tag:
<script type=”text/javascript” src=”https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=YOUR_GOOGLE_API_KEY&sensor=false”></script>
because in live website you will need to include an API key.

For map options see: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/reference#MapOptions

<?php
$addr = urlencode("211, APC Road, Shyam Bazar, Kolkata");
$xmlstr = file_get_contents("http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/xml?address=$addr&sensor=false");
$xmlarr = new SimpleXMLElement($xmlstr);
$lat = $xmlarr->result->geometry->location->lat;
$lng = $xmlarr->result->geometry->location->lng;
?>
